Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) June 30, 2009 -- Drexel University Online, a pioneer in internet-based education programs, has launched a new Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice.

This unique program draws on the strengths of a range of programs including philosophy, sociology, psychology, legal studies, political science, information science, chemistry, bioscience and biotechnology and computer science. The degree prepares students for a modern career in criminal justice, private security or within the legal profession.

Students will have 24/7 online access to class materials, group discussion, instructor feedback and exams.
